4 • 65-2336RKSS CO Transmitter
Amplifier
The amplifier converts the electrical output from the detector to a 4 to 20 mA signal that
corresponds to the detection range and transmits the signal to a gas monitoring controller.
A foam gasket that orients the amplifier and keeps it from rotating is installed on the
bottom of the amplifier. The amplifier includes the controller terminal strip, detector
terminal strip, zero pot, span pot, and test points (see Figure 1).
Controller Terminal Strip
The controller terminal strip is a two position plug-in style terminal strip located at the
top edge of the amplifier. Use the controller terminal strip to wire the amplifier to a
controller.
Detector Terminal Strip
The detector terminal strip is a four position plug-in style terminal strip located below the
controller terminal strip. Two of the positions are for use with an oxygen detector and are
not used in the CO transmitter. Use the two detector terminal strip positions that are
labeled “TOXIC” to connect the detector to the amplifier.
NOTE: The detector is factory-wired to the detector terminal strip. See “Wiring the CO
Transmitter to a Controller” on page 6 for all wiring procedures related to the
transmitter.
Zero Pot
The zero pot is located in the upper left corner of the amplifier (see Figure 1). Use a small
flat blade screwdriver to turn the zero pot’s adjustment screw and adjust the amplifier’s
zero (CO free) output during the start-up and calibration procedure. Turn the adjustment
screw clockwise to increase the zero output and counterclockwise to decrease the zero
output.
Span Pot
The span pot is located to the right of the zero pot (see Figure 1). Use a small flat blade
screwdriver to turn the span pot’s adjustment screw and adjust the amplifier’s response
output during the start up and calibration procedure. Turn the adjustment screw
clockwise to increase the response output and counterclockwise to decrease the response
output.
CAUTION: The amplifier includes an additional pot. It is factory-set. Do not adjust it.
Test Points
The test points are on the left side of the amplifier (see Figure 1). The test points produce a
100 mV to 500 mV output that corresponds to the transmitter’s 4 to 20 mA output. Use the
test points and a voltmeter to measure the amplifier’s output during the start-up and
calibration procedures. The black test point in the lower left corner is the negative (-) test
point and the red test point below the zero pot is the positive (+) test point.
Junction Box
The stainless steel, corrosion resistant junction box allows you to install the detector at a
mounting site that is remote from a controller, and it protects the amplifier and wiring
connections made to the amplifier. Two conduit hubs allow you to mount the detector to
the junction box and connect the wiring from the detector to a controller. An O-ring seals
the interface between the junction box cover and the junction box base.
